Vineyard prices in Alsace since 1991

 

Preamble: SAFER has modified the method of calculating the price of vines per vineyard in 2024 by changing the weighting given to certain appellations or by including or excluding certain transactions. This change was also applied to 2023 and 2022. For our part, we have chosen to retain the historical values of previous years in order to maintain the consistency of our methods.
This change means that price variations can be very different from one year to the next between the SAFER data and our data.

The price of vines in Alsace fell by 0.7% in 2024 to €117,000 per hectare.
Over the last 30 years (from 1991 to 2020), the price of vines in Alsace has gone through 4 distinct phases:

  1. Sharp rise in the price of vines between 1991 and 2005: 15 years of very strong growth, with prices rising from €39,900/ha to €158,300/ha, a 4-fold increase. It should be noted that the increase was proportionally greater in Bas-Rhin (from €25,100 to €119,200, i.e. x 4.7) than in Haut-Rhin (from €50,600 to €186,800, i.e. x 3.7).
  2. Correction of vineyard prices from 2005 to 2007: 2 years of sharp falls followed the record year of 2005, with an average price down to €126,400 (-20%).
  3. Stagnation in vineyard prices from 2007 to 2019: A virtual stagnation in vineyard prices has been observed since 2007 in Alsace, with average prices fluctuating between €120,000 and €140,000 per hectare.
  4. Sharp price correction since 2020: since 2020, prices have fluctuated but remain below €120,000/ha.

Our articles on vine prices in France

We present comprehensive statistics on vineyard prices in France. We analyse land prices at the time of publication of the official SAFER figures and the publication of the ‘Barème indicatif de la valeur vénale moyenne des terres agricoles’ by the Ministry of Agriculture:

The following articles give you more detailed prices for each vineyard and appellation:

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need help interpreting these data.

Data source : The data used in this article comes from statistics published by the SAFER relating to plots larger than 70 ares (7,000 m² or 0.70 hectare) and which have been statistically processed by Agreste (the statistical department of the Ministry of Agriculture) and then published in the Journal Officiel in the "Barème indicatif de la valeur vénale moyenne des terres agricoles".

As mentioned, these market prices are purely indicative and in no way oblige you to buy or sell at the rates indicated. If you look at the details of the minimum and maximum values shown, you will see that prices generally vary widely. However, they should be taken into account to avoid any pre-emption with a price revision by the SAFER.
